Novel Bin Chapter 304 Who are they and why are they referring to me as sister-in-law? (3)
It was certainly very different being one’s own boss. Even the way that Zhang Huaxiu talked and acted had changed greatly.
“Hi, Shu Yan, you are here. Oh, you brought with you JingJing and Tianbao?” said Zhang Huaxiu with a smile when she saw the two kids.
They had been friends in private so Zhang Huaxiu referred to Shu Yan by her name. She normally referred to Shu Yan as boss at work to keep the separation. She referred to Shu Yan by her name today. It seemed that she had well-adjusted to her new role.
“What time did you guys get here?” Shu Yan took a look and saw Ling-jie
tidying clothing on one side.“We got here a little after 7,” said Zhang Huaxiu with a smile.
In addition to the two original salespersons, they hired another ten or so interns to help hand out fliers nearby. Shu Yan had also brought the workers from the old underwear shop to come help out.
At 8:30 AM, friends of Shu Yan and Zhang Huaxiu started arriving one by one to lend their support. Each one of them brought flower basket with them. There were Lao Hu, Lao Zhang, and Lin Hui. Chen Fei’s uncle and his boss weren’t able to make it but they sent flower baskets as well. Zhang Huaxiu’s parents and brother came as well. It was different this time around. Last time it was the grand opening of Shu Yan’s shop; Zhang Huaxiu was just an employee. Xiuxiu was now half a boss. Naturally, they would come and show their support.
Mother Zhang could not have smiled more when she saw Shu Yan. Shu Yan had practically gave half of her shop to her daughter. Shu Yan was an equivalent of the God of Fortune as far as Mother Zhang was concerned; how could she not smile?
“That won’t be necessary,” said Shu Yan with a smile. “Xiuxiu will be managing the shop going forward. Just don’t complaint to me that I am not helping out at all then.”
“Of course not. We will always remember how kind you are. Xiuxiu would not have accomplished what she did today without you.” Mother Zhang could see it clearly. Was it not for Shu Yan, Xiuxiu would not have met someone nice like Chen Fei. And now she was part owner of a shop.
Shu Yan didn’t believe that. Everything was great now because she was the one with the shorter end of the stick. She would feel that her daughter was stiffed as time went on. Which was fine. They had a contract signed. When Zhang Huaxiu decided against the partnership, she could just buy Shu Yan out then. Having half of that shop or not did not matter much to Shu Yan.
When Shu Yan thought that most who were coming had already arrived, two tall men came over shortly thereafter, each carrying with them a flower basket. They put them down and were about to take off without saying a word.
“Hey, wait. Who are you?”
“Oh, hi, sister-in-law. Big Brother asked us to drop these off. We know you are busy so we won’t keep you,” said the more honest and simple-looking one of the two.
What did he just say? Sister-in-law? Shu Yan was stupefied for a little while before she looked at them and asked dubiously, “You are coworkers of Feng Zeyu?”
“Yes, yes, yes. Big Brother said he shouldn’t come in person and asked us to deliver these for him. Pardon us, sister-in-law, we need to rush back to work. We shall be on our way.”
“Aye.” The two disappeared before Shu Yan could stop them.
“Who were them?” asked Hu Ruixue as she walked up to Shu Yan slowly.
“Coworkers of Feng Zeyu.”
She hadn’t told Lin Hui or Wu Xiuyue about Feng Zeyu yet but she didn’t keep that from Hu Ruixue.
Hu Ruixue raised her brows. “Very well then.”
